«The Old Man and the Sea» is the short novel by Ernest Hemingway, published by Pacers in paperback (in English).
The story follows Santiago, an elderly fisherman from Cuba, during his encounter with a huge marlin in the Gulf Stream. The short novel describes the development of that struggle on the high seas, with the old fisherman as the sole protagonist.
Written in Cuba in 1951 and published in 1952, it was Hemingway's last work of fiction published in his lifetime.
Ernest Miller Hemingway was an American novelist, short-story writer, and journalist. Known for an economical, understated style that influenced later 20th-century writers, he has been romanticized for his adventurous lifestyle and outspoken, blunt public image. Some of his seven novels, six short-story collections and two non-fiction works have become classics of American literature, and he was awarded the 1954 Nobel Prize in Literature.
